    Summary

    Mira and Zoey don’t know this yet (they will, one day soon, they will), but Rumi died for the first time the Monday after her eleventh birthday.

    Or

    Rumi inhaled, the rush of air filling her lungs, inflating that tiny balloon called hope trapped behind her ribs.

    “I love you, Celine.”

    The words tumbled out of her gracelessly, but so so sweetly. She waited, and all the while, that little balloon grew and grew, the plastic skin of it stretching and thinning with every second before—

    “You too,” Celine said back.

    ‘Pop.’

    “Celine,” Rumi tried again, voice shaking as tears she didn’t even know she still had left to shed began to drip down her left cheek. “Celine, I said I love you.

    Or

    If demons (even half-demons) could kill themselves, there probably wouldn't be many left. Rumi doesn't know this, yet. She learns.

    Summary

    “Rumi,” Zoey’s voice is impossibly soft, “why wouldn’t I tell you that you’re good?”

    Rumi shrugs, feeling raw and exposed in the way she always does after kneeling for them.

    She considers the question: she just wasn’t brought up that way. There was never any need for praise or affirmation as a form of encouragement. Not when there were other forms so readily available – imminent choking forms, creeping steadily across her body.

    A soft Rumi character study featuring cows, colours and collars.

    Summary

    Rumi thought everything would be okay. Their fight with Gwi-Ma had made it seem like Zoey and Mira came to terms with the fact that she had patterns just like the demons.

    So, why is it that they can't even look at her?

    Why can't Zoey meet her eyes? Why won't Mira speak to her?

    The loneliness is killing her, and she feels as if she's growing colder with each passing second. How is she supposed to fix their relationship when it seems like her two best friends-her only friends-don't want it fixed?

    Running from her problems worked for years. It kept her within that circle she wanted to return to. If it worked before, what was the problem with returning to her old ways of hiding and avoiding any issues she came across?

    There wasn't any other option. She couldn't take the pain of their stares anymore. She had to get away from them. She just had to.
